In general I don’t have a very high regard for Choice reviews on matters such as this. The reason is that their testing protocols often don’t have much connection with reality. An example is their testing of laundry detergents – they test exclusively in Cold Water. The consequence of this is that the cleaning agents in the premium brands that require at least warm water (enzymes and oxidizers) don’t come into play. The consequence of that is they arrive at the absurd conclusion that Coles detergent outperforms OMO.

On top of that they don’t include products in their test that will do the job despite having the wrong labelling (because they just don’t know any better). For example, the best laundry prewashes are alkaline-salt degreasers (like Kenco). Any alkaline degreaser (as opposed to solvent degreaser) from any auto accessories shop will outperform any laundry prewash
